High-school administrators warn 24 seniors risk missing graduation threshold

Gervais School District 1 Board of Directors · May 26, 2026

Summary

The high-school report showed 24 of 73 seniors are below the district's 90% attendance threshold; the school outlined a hardship petition process and credit-recovery options to help students meet graduation requirements.

A high-school administrator told the board the school has a substantial group of seniors at risk of not meeting graduation attendance requirements. "Today, we have, 24 of our seniors, out of 73 or below that threshold," the administrator said, describing intervention efforts, one-on-one meetings with seniors and a hardship petition process that requires a handwritten page from the student explaining their circumstances.

The administrator said building-level staff will review hardship petitions for students near the threshold while petitions for those below 80% require superintendent approval. The report also listed academic concerns: 14 seniors with one failing grade and others with multiple failing grades. The district plans credit-recovery and summer-school options to help students earn needed credits.
